CZ-455 Bolt Throw Degree?

[PBWalsh]

So by my eyeball, I’m estimating about 80* on a CZ 455 bolt throw. Do any of y’all know a hard number for this rifle’s bolt throw?

Asking because I love the bolt operation and smoothness of mine and want to see the degree of throw as it’ll help me on a centerfire action decision.

Thanks y’all.

I’d suggest you try out some centerfire actions before making a decision based on a rimfire. There’s a lot more going on with a centerfire than a rimfire.

Well true, I’ll only used 90* throws on an 03a3, R700, and an FNH. Didn’t know if I could shoehorn a rough correlation.

Bolt actions with shorter bolt lifts tend to have heavier lifts as well, it comes down to personal preference

Good lord.

You sir, are thinking too hard about this. Just buy a bolt .22 of decent quality and use it more than you write or think about it's bolt throw.

 

[PBWalsh]

Yes, I have the mentioned .22 and dry fire it a ton for practice work. This was the reason for the OP, I enjoy how my CZ cycles and was asking is there any correlation between the CZ’s bolt cycle (besides the obvious shorter length) and a standard centerfire bolt throw in terms of degrees from the locked to unlocked position.

Yes its a petty question, but I do not exactly have access to nice custom actions to test out.
